Hi guys, I did not check the grounding cables as it looks pretty difficult.
Is there a way of checking the fuses instead?

I did check today the battery and alternator and all is in good shape.

My other suspicions is the SOS battery is dead ( even though I have no SOS warning that doesnt go away ) that can can cause all faults beings displayed all at once on my cluster
